“It's’ a natural reaction,” Staut“fer sald. “Worry weighs as heavon

. i: Dowd Role

‘Harvey’ Opens 3-Day § tand ; . By HENRY BUTLER You haven't seen “Harvey” un-

three days at the Murat last night, in- bis awn very special

TN Not to slight Joe E, Brown, Mr. (Fay seems far better adapted to the

portraying Elwood with his harmless delusions. He subtle Dowd than Mr, Brown, He strives less for attention. And while Mr. Brown often seems to be trying hard to give the Dowd role a kind of senti<mentally benign meaning, Mr. Fay wisely concentrates on just

{being Uncle Elwood,

That's no cinch. The impersonation of Elwood in various stages of tightness, Including the _{deprtamiye or wearing-off stage _iwhere another drink seems mandatory, ability, ‘m Loaded’ In his marvelous curtain speech, Mr, Fay at one point sald, “I'm loaded,” possibly to continue the {llusion he had bilit up throughout the play, It couldn't have been a statement of fact, Or If it was, most of last night's spectators would like to switch to Mr, Fay's brand in the hope of attaining similar brilliance and efficiency in the roles we're compelled to play. Mr. Fay manages to convey the upsy-downsy energy and weariness of Elwood's whiskey-punec-tuated career. Eiwood Is compassionate and Interested In people, even the worst bores, like the ‘Act III taxi-driver (Burke McHugh), Trivial facts about people's lives seem to fascinate Elwood, and so peoples like him, Superb - Performance The quiet talk, ingeniously varied by shouted responses when Wilson (Bradford Hatton), the

{sadistic orderly in Dr. Chumley’s

psychiatric hospital, yells at him; the gestures, expressions and eloquent blue eyes—all these are combined in a superb performance, Mr. Fay merits more space, but credits also are due his supporting cast. Jean Stapleton, as Myrtle Mae Simmons, Elwood’s poisonous niece, is just about the best -goon-gal I've ever seen on the stage. That apparently lefthanded compliment is high praise. Dora Clement, as FKlwood's sister Veta, is altogether wonderful. Kate Tomlinson, as Mrs. Chauvenet, the elegantly frowsy socialite; Mabel McCallum, as Miss Kelly, the nurse; Thomas as Dr: Sanderson; Fred

the step after nine days of medi-

Lewis, as a fine heavilystuffed shirt of a Dr. Chumley; _{Genevieve Frizzell, as a highly “|susceptible ‘Mrs. Chumley, and Sydney Grant, as Judge all work together with splendid timing to make: “Harvey” much
